Inside Design Now

This is a review of the cutting-edge trends in all areas of American design, from architecture, interiors and landscape design to product design, graphic design, fashion and new media. The book pays special attention to the realm of the interior, both at home and in the workplace. Understood psychologically as well as physically, the concept of the interior is explored at the scale of objects, garments and printed matter as well as buildings, cities and landscapes. An interior can be as private as a bedroom or as public as a subway car, as tiny as the chamber of an artificial heart or as expansive as an urban development. Work from 80 emerging and established designers is featured, including Charles Anderson, Blu Dot, the Hoefler Type Foundry, Mike Mills, Gaetano Pesce, Paula Scher, Smart Design and Lorraine Wild.
